I agree with Bunyan that baptism is not even required for partaking of the Supper!!! Confessing your faith in Christ as Lord and Savior and [b:487a927f74]examing yourself prior to partaking[/b:487a927f74] is sufficient. 1 Cor 11:23-32

Phillip,

If, as you say, that examining yourself prior to partaking is required, would it be permissible for one to partake and be living habitually in known sin? If the answer is no, then wouldn't that prevent someone from partaking who isn't baptized since we are commanded to be baptized. Isn't someone who is not baptized and is a believer (not including those that are seeking to be baptized) living disobediently? Honest question here.
